Mu Fusheng had been keeping an eye on Ye Qiubai's situation.
His expression was solemn, clearly showing that he was also greatly shocked by the strength of the man in blue.
Although the man in blue had suppressed his cultivation to the same level as Ye Qiubai, his Sword Dao was far inferior to Ye Qiubai's.
Even so, he still overwhelmed Ye Qiubai with his Swordsmanship!
Mad Thunder laughed from the side, "Looks like your companion isn't up to par. But that's normal, considering how much cultivators of your generation neglect the fundamentals."
The old man took a sip of his wine and said calmly, "This era is too restless. Basic combat awareness can often give you the upper hand, and even allow you to turn the tide in a desperate situation..."
Mu Fusheng had to admit that they were right.
They actually understood this principle, which is why the eldest brother and the Little Senior Brother Hei were so eager to find opponents to spar with in order to improve their combat skills and match their level of cultivation.
Compared to their peers, the senior disciples' combat abilities are already far ahead.
However... he doesn't practice deliberately in his spare time, as the old man and Mad Thunder said.
"Look," the old man chuckled, "If your senior brother can't grasp any Swordsmanship in battle..." "then he might die."
Mu Fusheng's heart tightened, but he smiled calmly after seeing Ye Qiubai close his eyes.
"Senior may not know, but when it comes to swords, Senior Brother's comprehension speed is beyond the reach of ordinary people."
The old man and Mad Thunder exchanged a glance, not knowing where Mu Fusheng got his confidence from, and said nothing more.
One man drank heartily, while the other sipped his wine slowly, watching to see how Ye Qiubai would overcome his predicament.
now.
The man in blue watched as Ye Qiubai closed his eyes, a hint of admiration appearing in his eyes.
"He's not entirely useless; he still has potential. Knowing that I can't find any flaws, I'll rely on my own conscience."
For sword cultivators...
While mastery of Sword Dao is important, Sword Heart is also an indispensable part of sword cultivation.
The concept of "Sword Heart " needs no further explanation.
The unique nature of sword cultivation means that those who possess Sword Heart are better able to see through a person's weaknesses and see through all illusions!
Close your eyes, abandon all perception except for your Mind's Eye, and concentrate all your attention on the Sword Heart, focusing your Mind's Eye perception.
This makes it easier to perceive flaws.
The moment Ye Qiubai closed his eyes and focused his mind on the Sword Heart, a completely different world appeared in Ye Qiubai sea of consciousness.
Everything around them—every tombstone on the Grave Mountain, every coffin, and the trajectory of every person's movements—was clearly visible.
The surrounding airflow is so subtle that even the slightest breeze can be clearly felt.
now.
The man in blue had already closed in, his long sword slashing towards Ye Qiubai.
Those movements, so full of flaws... at this moment, the number of flaws actually decreased in Ye Qiubai's perception.
So Ye Qiubai drew his sword, and the man in blue slashed down from above, intending to strike him on the top of his head.
Ye Qiubai then slightly bent his knees, arching his body like a leopard.
Immediately, she pushed off the ground with both feet and rushed into the arms of the man in blue!
At the same time, the long sword in his hand pierced straight through the chest of the man in blue!
To an outsider, if the man in blue hadn't stopped his sword, Ye Qiubai would have pierced his chest. At the same time, due to the difference in position, the man in blue's sword would have only severed a piece of flesh from Ye Qiubai's back!
It's obvious at a glance which is more important!
But.
The man in blue did not back down. As if he were determined to sacrifice himself for the enemy, he continued to slash at Ye Qiubai!
However, the man in blue's hands twisted slightly at that moment.
He then bent backward.
His feet actually left the ground at that moment!
The longsword in his hand sliced off an entire patch of skin from Ye Qiubai's back!
Ye Qiubai felt as if his back was burning and being pricked by needles!
His sword strike naturally missed its mark.
Ye Qiubai's eyes narrowed slightly, but he did not give up the attack. He roared and suddenly raised both hands, aiming an upward strike at the man in blue's groin.
At that moment, the man in blue forced his feet to land hard, his two feet landing precisely on the blade of the sword in Ye Qiubai's hand.
Ye Qiubai felt his hands suddenly sink, unwilling to let go of the sword, and his whole body fell to the ground along with the longsword in his hands.
The man in blue swung his right foot, sending Ye Qiubai flying once again.
His back slammed heavily onto a tombstone.
The pain of being hit again on a back that already had its skin cut off is unbearable for most people.
The man in blue laughed, "Not bad, at least you've found a weakness. If it were a fellow swordsman of this era, their Swordsmanship would be far inferior to yours."
The man in blue looked at Xuanyuan Che and Xuanyuan Ling and sneered, "At least they can't compare to you."
"However... that's not enough."
Ye Qiubai nodded heavily, struggled to get up, and closed his eyes again.
Mind's Eye perception of the man in blue was still insufficient.
We need to concentrate even more!
Disregard the surrounding sounds of wind and grass, disregard the perception of others, disregard the flow of air and the flying sand and stones.
All attention was focused on the man in blue!
The man in blue robes launched another attack on Ye Qiubai!
But this time...
Ye Qiubai drew his sword again, but this time...
Ye Qiubai's sword strike was extremely tricky!
The man in blue robes charged forward, piercing through the air.
Ye Qiubai, however, slashed at the side of the man in blue!
The sword strike landed directly on the tip of the sword in the man in blue's hand!
The man in blue robes' expression faltered slightly, and the long sword in his hand was forced to bounce away.
Ye Qiubai stepped forward with his right foot, closing in on the man in blue. He twisted his Sword Peak, which was originally aimed at the man in blue's sword, and slashed horizontally towards the man's chest!
The man in blue smiled.
A knee strike restricted Ye Qiubai's movements, allowing him to create distance.
He slashed at Ye Qiubai again!
Two people.
At this moment, they had exchanged a full six moves!
A gruesome wound was slashed across Ye Qiubai's chest.
However... Ye Qiubai now seemed to Demonization, disregarding everything, and charged towards the man in blue again!
In Ye Qiubai's subconscious, time passed quickly.
But for others watching Ye Qiubai's battle, time seemed to move so slowly...
Half a day.
Ye Qiubai was already able to engage in a prolonged fight with the man in blue!
Although still at a disadvantage, the man in blue could no longer harm Ye Qiubai!
The old man's lips twitched.
He finally understood why Mu Fusheng was so confident in his senior brother.
To be able to achieve this level in just half a day... no wonder Sword Dao swordsmanship is so advanced.
Mad Thunder's eyes also gleamed with Battle Intent as he stared intently at Mu Fusheng, saying, "If your senior brother possesses such talent, you must be no less so. I'm increasingly looking forward to our battle!"
